Does anyone else worry about competition? I keep getting doubtful every time I see another "land clearing" and "dirt work" outfit in my area. (Haven't started advertising yet because of prior commitments, but will lock in my liability insurance and commercial auto for my one ton in a month.) Any advice? Having to wait another month.

So trying to get verified on Google has been a pain in my rear. End has anybody else struggling to get verified themselves?

Carved some trails for a perc test for him. Lots more work to do on his land, but he needed this small phase 1 done first. First time testing a 97-3 with 50 hours and new knives it was amazing…. Compared to the 75-3 I’ve been renting this thing was at least 2x more efficient. It got super dry at the end and I was the creator of dust storms. Makes it disorienting and super unsafe, few times I just had to stop and wait for the dust to clear. This is my 4th job completed since I started start last month. I priced one out and should be getting it here soon, I’ve quoted 65k of jobs so far in a little over a month. Completed 10k worth of jobs so far, I didn’t realize how long it takes for clients to close. They need a decent amount of time and coordination. Thanks to everyone in the group you have been super helpful! Thanks!🙏 I know it’s probably busy season and there will be slow seasons, but my projects look good! Anyways, keep grinding boys! Together we conquer!

Did anyone purchase an insurance policy before their first jobs?
